Property & Poppadoms (Property Training Day) - Social Housing Deep Dive

A full day dedicated to social housing—currently one of the hottest topics in property investment, offering attractive returns combined with positive social impact and long-term security.

This intricate and comprehensive session will cover all aspects of social housing provision, including the different models available: leasing properties to local authorities, working with housing associations, supported housing for specific tenant groups, and exempt accommodation.

You’ll learn about the regulatory environment, including recent changes and forthcoming legislation that affects the sector, registration requirements, compliance obligations, and how to operate within the rules while maintaining profitability.

The session will cover finding and assessing suitable properties, understanding what local authorities and housing associations need, tenancy management in the social housing context (which differs from standard BTL), how rates and returns are calculated, contract negotiations and lease terms, and the long-term sustainability of different social housing models.

You’ll also hear from experienced social housing providers who can share real-world insights, challenges they’ve faced, and how they’ve built successful and ethical social housing businesses that deliver both social value and commercial returns. This balanced perspective will help you determine if social housing aligns with your investment goals and values.

Know what’s Happening Next — before everyone else does.
